Biofield Impact on Tumor Cells - Two Time Lapse Video MicroscopyAbstract Study background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common subtype of primary brain tumor in adults. The aim was to evaluate the impact of biofield treatment potential on human GBM and non-GBM brain cells using two time-lapse video microscopy technique.
